Jericho pulled her behind him, his expression serious: “Joaquin, no one is driving her away. It’s just that after Grandpa received Romina’s treatment, not only did he not improve, but his condition has gotten worse. In this situation, we definitely can’t let her continue treating him.”
Joaquin frowned slightly, his voice deep: “Is she the doctor, or are you the doctor?”
“1…”
Jericho was momentarily at a loss for words.
The man’s expression darkened to the extreme: “I’d like to see who dares to stop her again.”
Romina turned her head to look in Joaquin’s direction, waves of emotion rippling through her heart.
For the first time, she realized how good it felt to have someone stand up for her.
At the same time, the medical doctor invited by Nadine and Jericho also arrived at the scene.
Seeing the tense standoff, the medical doctor did not dare to speak lightly and waited quietly at the side for instructions.
Joaquin glanced at the expert, then shifted his gaze to Romina, his voice much gentler: “Erick, take Ms. Sandoval upstairs.”
Erick nodded quickly: “Yes.”
Romina followed Erick up to the third floor, the sound of incessant arguing trailing behind her.
“Joaquin, you really can’t let her treat Grandpa anymore. Her skills are so basic, there’s no way she can cure him!”
“Did you forget what the attending doctor said at the hospital last time?” Joaquin’s eyes grew cold as he glared at Jericho. “Do I really need to repeat to you how skilled she is?”
“If her medical skills were really that great, Grandpa wouldn’t be in this situation…”
Joaquin reached out and grabbed his tie: “If you can’t even trust your own wife, it’s no wonder you’ve ended up where you are today.”
“Mr. Bowman, let’s talk this out. There’s no need for violence.”

Seeing this scene, Nadine’s face visibly tensed with anxiety.
Joaquin glanced at Nadine, then abruptly let go of Jericho: “Our family matters are none of your busi- ness.”
The man strode quickly toward the third floor.
Jericho straightened his tie, a gloomy look flickering in his eyes.
“Mr. Jericho, do you still need me to go up?”
The medical doctor standing beside him looked at Jericho with a grave expression.
Jericho glanced at him, then said indifferently, “Come up with me and take a look. In case she can’t han- dle it, you can step in.”
The medical doctor replied respectfully, “Alright.”
On the third floor, inside Hayden’s room.
Lenora had been keeping watch by the bedside, watching Romina’s every move with some surprise.
It was her first time witnessing Romina perform a treatment, and the swift, precise way she inserted the
needles left Lenora in awe.
It was clear at a glance that she was an extremely professional naturopathic doctor.
And not just any doctor, but a truly exceptional one…
“Help him sit up.”
Romina turned to look at Lenora and the butler beside her, her eyes especially serious.
Receiving the signal, the two of them quickly helped Hayden sit up.
At the same time, Joaquin happened to open the door.
Romina was fully focused, not even glancing at the door. She walked behind Hayden, found the correct body point, and inserted another needle.
The next second, Hayden suddenly coughed lightly.
A mouthful of blood spilled from his lips.
This scene was witnessed not only by Joaquin, but also by Jericho and Nadine.

Everyone’s expression grew extremely grave, except for Romina, who remained as calm as ever, contin- uing her acupuncture.
“Why is he coughing up blood? What on earth is happening?”
Lenora was so frightened that her body trembled, and the hand holding Hayden tightened involuntarily.
“Joaquin! I told you she couldn’t do it, but you insisted on letting her treat Grandpa. Now he’s coughing up blood!”
Jericho rushed in quickly, looking at the scene with concern.
“In Sir Bowman’s case, physical therapy really is the only option,” the medical doctor suddenly spoke up. “I’m not very familiar with naturopathy, but I have taken similar courses before. It should be that blood stasis has accumulated in the chest cavity, causing difficulty breathing. Coughing up blood is ac- tually a sign of improvement…”
After hearing the medical doctor’s explanation, everyone gradually relaxed.
Jericho still frowned: “If we were to use conventional medicine, how would this situation be treated?”
“I suppose… .” the medical doctor said gravely, “the only option would be surgery. But Sir Bowman is so old, he might not survive it. Naturopathy really is the best approach, and it must be performed by a highly skilled naturopathic doctor to turn things around.”
In other words, Romina’s medical skills were truly exceptional.
After hearing the medical doctor’s words, Nadine and Jericho’s faces turned ashen.
Joaquin, who had been silent at the side, suddenly spoke: “Erick, please ask all unrelated people to leave so as not to delay Ms. Sandoval’s treatment.”
